LETTER PROM ANNAPOLIS.
Annapolis, February 10th, 1864.
r..ui Bao. Mears:—l promised you
no from this old-fashioned city:
[. ivland’s Capitol, and the scene of
r o historic interest. You will re
lL nber that here the Continental Con-
were onoe assembled, and within
u walls of the . quaint old State House,
Islington resigned his sword, and
.fsyette afterward presented his con-,
, 'ulations. Here for many years uq
.iie outbreak of the great rebellion,.
- the site of the United States Naval
vie my, whose convenient buildings
■;t since been made a hospital for the
k ar.d wounded victims of the war.
lore also, it was that General Butler
made his debut on Southern soil, a
•v days after the disgraceful day for
iltimore, of April 19th, 1861.
lor the past month, the Maryland
ogislature have been in session at a
me big with the future interest of the
i Commonwealth. In the course of
irine Providence, and by the logic of
vents, Slavery has been shown to be
? longer possible within her borders,
trough the madness of its own oham
ior.s its doom'has been hastened, and
; now inevitable. The fact is accepted
y all who are not blind. The life of
be Nation demands that the ulcer
hich has so long poisoned society, and
: last induced such terrible convulsion,
iall be cut out without any delay. Tolls
cessat effectus.
The march of sentiment on this point
i this latitude is wonderful. According
, the Legislature have taken the first
;p as it is regarded, in the process of
mancipation, and yesterday, after a
ngthened debate, passed, by a vote of
nr-three to fifteen, a bill providing
>r the call of a Convention, to see if be
se will of the people, to frame a
sw Constitution, &c. The Convention
ill assemble on the last Wednesday of
irii. The main business of this Con-
ention will be, as is understood, the
mediate destruction of the barbarous
Dfiitution By annulling its legal exis
:lcc forever.
Thus is < the axe laid at the root
ithe tree. May the sturdy blows not
ease till it falls; and as it falleth, so
;ay it lie 1
A sad tragedy gave us, in this place,
: opportunity of witnessing lastSatur
ir, the funeral service of the Greek
iiurch. A sailor of the Russian fleet,
-two vessels of which —the Almaz and
be I 'arioq, are now here at anchor, was
mrdered in a drunken bout.
The service began in the chapel of
he Naval School, by the chanting of an
See for the dead in Sclavonic; after
Finch came a mass, and sprinkling of
oly water and barning of incense,
hen the priest read aloud an account
f the life of DemidofF, the murdered
m, and placed the scroll containing it
i his right hand, which he kissed, bow
tg to the ground and the sign
f the cross, >
Four stalwart men then placed upon
heir shoulders the coffin, uncovered
are with Russia’s white-ground flag,
nth its St. Andrews’ cross of blue, and
ith a solemn dirge, the procession
■ ound its way to the Soldiers’ grave*
nrd, where sleep so many of our coun
ty's braye defenders. First went a
uge sailor with the coffin-lid upon his
ead; add then the Greek priest with
is gorgeous robes of green bespangled
ith rich golden crosses; while after
ira followed M. Bodisco from Washing
>n, accompanied by officers of the Bus
an fleet with many of our own army
nd navy ; and finally the marines and
to comfade sailors. When within an
undred yards of the grave, all broke
)rth into a solemn chant of a funeral
3alm. There was farther waving of
is censer and muttering of strange
r ords by the priest as he laid a cruci
x upon the dead man’s bosom, and
mnkled earth upon him with the Sex
in’s spade, ere the coffin was fastened
nd lowered amidst vollies of musketry.
It was altogether an impressive spee
iclo to see this stranger laid away to
let in a strange land, and appropriate
mt he should find a resting place be
de our sleeping heroes.
The whole number of invalids in hos
ital here'now, is not over 600 or 700 : t
'bile at times as many as 3000 have
iea accommodated. We are glad to
now that there is some religious inter
it among the men. Many havo been
card to cry “ What shall I do to, be
ived ?” who have found the Saviour.

Ellicott. —A critical and grammatical com
mentary on St. Paul's Epistles to the
lnessalomans, with a revised Transla
te 11 - jßy Charles J. Ellicott, B. D., Dean
of Exeter and Professor of Divinitv,
■King sCollege, London. Andover: War
ren Draper. Philada.: Smith, English
& Co. 8 vo. pp 166. 6
Dean Ellicolt’s commentaries are
long past the need of any critics’ com
mendation. For clearness, brevity,
scholarlike fidelity, appreciation of the
real grammatical sense of the text, ab
sence off all discursive disquisitions, and
evidence of comprehensive and pro
found learning, without the slightest
parade aud joined .with a* childlike rev
erence for the word of God, these com
mentaries are unique in the Biblical
literature of England. We know noth
ing equal to them anywhere, the nearest
approach being the “ Kurz ge fasstes
Exegetisches Mandbuch” of DeWetfce, a
model of scholarly compactness and of
sharp insight, hut belonging decidedly
to the rationalistic school of critics. <lt
is indeed a favorable omen, and not to
be overlooked among others of a very
different character, that such a man
should be : advanced to a position of emi
nence in the Church of England.
. The commentary on Thessalonians
slightly differs from preceding works
by the same author, by a cautious but
somewhat freer mixture of exegesis in
the strictly grammatical work which
still forms the bulk of the Commentary.
Attention is paid to the connection of
clauses and the general sequence of
of thought; and to the developing of the
dogmatical significance of mqro-impor
tant passages. This will undoubtedly
make the work mere valuable and more
acceptable. In addition to the half-a
dozen or more old versions which this
accomplished scholar has heretofore
used in the originals, he has latterly
employed the Armenian version; and
for this purpose has acquired such a
knowledge of the language, as would
enable him to state faithfully its opin
ion in contested passages. We are sur
prised to learn from Dean Ellicott, how
little is known by Borne of the most
celebrated Biblical scholars of these old
versions in the original. Even Tisohen
dorf is shown to rely upon Latin trans
lations; and Latin translations are not
al ways trustworthy or exact. “Itis of
paramount importance that the loyal
oritio should use no eyes but his own.”
Like Prof. Shodd, in his recent work
on the History of Christian Doctrine,
Dean Ellicott, with all his regard for
modern scholarship, finds very much
deserving of the attention of the Bibli
cal student in the best English divines.
In the commentary before us, they are
still more frequently referred to,—ser
mons on all the more difficult
verses, are' mentioned; and Prof. E.
says, that no portion of bis labors has
been more kindly appreciated, or has
apparently been of more real service to
theological students.
Part of Ellicott’s work has been to
undo the mischief of Jowott’s Commen
tary upon the same portion of the
Scripture. He records it as his fixed
opinion, that , the system of interpreta
tion pursued by Prof. J., is as danger
ous as inaccurate and untenable. —
“ Surely expressions that would be
thought hard, if applied to Pindar or
Thueyicdides seem sadly out of place
when directed against the diction of
the inspired Saul of Tarsus.”
A peculiar feature of Prof. Eilicott’s
Commentaries, is the New Translation
of the Epistle appended to each, in
which our noble English version is so
far adhered to, as not to sacrifice the
hallowed associations connected with it
tvhile substantial improvements are in
troduced into the text. Notes from the
more ancient English versions accom
pany the author’s translation, and
greatly enhance the value of this part
of the work. Mr. Draper has brought
out the volume in the most creditable
manner. _

The Philadelphia Photographer.—A
monthly Journal Devoted to Photog
raphy. February 1864. Philadel
phia : Bennerman & Wilson, Seventh
and Cherry Streets. Price $3 per
annum. , ■ ....
This journal is a credit to the import
ant calling which it has undertaken to
represent. The letter press is composed
of thorough discussions of various mas
ters connected with; the art : Selection
of Lenses; Report on the comparative
merits of Lenses, with table of experi
ments ; Photography applied to Engin
eering by Coleman Sellers; Photogra
phy applied to miniature painting on
Ivory; Photolithography with Silver
Soap; besides proceedings of the Photo
graphic Society of Philadelphia; Plea
for Heliography, by, M. A. Root, &c.
The illustration, “Happy as a King,’’
Is a perfect marvel of delicacy of finish
and perfection in all its details, as well
as in the elegance of the whole. The
photograph itself is well worth the en
tire price of the magazine, and would
form a parlor ornament, the beauty of
which it would be hard to match.

gic plans, marches and battles of .the
campaign of Chattanooga., With il
lustrative map. By the author of
the Annals of the Army of the. Cu
mberland. Philadelphia: J. B. Lip
pincott & Co. i .
This pamphlet is designed as an ap
pendix to the “ Annals,” a large and
important military work, recently issu
ed in splendid Btyle by Messrs. Lippin-,
cott & Co. The pamphlet is included
in the body of the later editions of that
volume, of which no less than three
editions were sold in sixty days, not
withstanding its expensive character.
The cause of General Rosecrans,
against the War Department, is earn
estly and ably defended in the pamph
let, which throws a great deal of light
on the last campaign of that General,
including the splendid advance from
Murfreesboro’ and the first occupation
of Chattanooga. An elaborate military
map adds to the value of the pamphlet.

counties in the State of lowa, for the'

We are indebted, we believe, to Rev.
Thompson Bird, of lowa, for this valu
able document, illustrating the resour

nine of cavalry, and four batteries.

The Western Presbyterian,. A Re

JChis is the first number of a periodi
cal designed to take the place among
Presbyterians South and West, of the
scurrilous and disloyal, True Presbyte
rian, whose editor, Stuart Robinson, is
constrained by military authority to
live in Canada. The character of Dr.
R’s paper is pronounced and undisguised,
but the “Western Presbyterian" will
not meet and neutralize the mischief of
that organ by a decided inculcation of
loyalty. It expects to be “ silent upon
the subject of our nation's trials,” be
cause it “ feels called to a much higher,
more appropriate and important work.”
It is lamentable that Kentucky Presby
terians rjemain so blind and so unmoved
Amid the grand Providential, develop
ments of our day, and that they will
amuse themselves by imagining that
Christian men have any clearer indica
tions of duty than those presented by the
unparallelod.events of the present. They
do not appear to have come to the
kingdom for such a time as this. We
are sure the mass of. Western Presbyte
rians would be surprised at the assump
tion that they are represented' by such
a timoroua'characterless affair as this.
Literary Items,
Sensation Books •on Heaven- The
London Weekly Meview deals severely
with—not to-'Say critically annihilates
—a senes of. books on Heaven, which
have hads an enormous circulation in
Great- Britain,.and have -been re-pttb
lished in this' country:- Heaven our
Home; Meet.for Heaven; Life in Hea

is the - familiarity even to- vulgarity,
with;which they treat. Of ; the heavenly:
-world,. I Detailed information is profess
edly given of things which eye hath
not seen, not" oar heard, neither have
■entered into the heart of man. - Enoch’s:
journey to heaven' is familiarly spoken
of; his experience on arriving there is
described, and then the conversation
among tho inmates of the heavenly city
is given in detail. Trivial and stupid
indeed is the converse of the saints
whicn wo have believed to bo so high
and gloriottti; if these confident state
ments are tq "be accepted. Jacob in
Heaven has? discarded Leah, and£ en
gages in loifg-winded, goody talk with
Rachel'. Rachel reciprocates; and al
ludes in touching terms to the circum
stance of her death. David is not only
not poetical, but is ungrammatical be
sides. Adam and Eve are described as
“ two venerable fountains, who may be
heard giving expression to anxious'
wishes:’’ From- which passage we learn
says the critic, that fountains can talk;
and that people in heaven are subject
to anxiety. Mary and Martha exchange
views npon the grief thej/experienced
at the death of Lazarus, with a sopho
moric attempt at fine language; Hea
ven, according to the writer, is about
as agreeable and exalted a place as a
gossiping church tea-party. -
Such trashy writing brings divine
things into contempt with unbelievers,
’as well as lowers them in our own
Spiritual perception. A false, vitiated
taset is cultivated, spiritual .conceit is
ebgendereif’aSSd a prurient prying into
the secret things of Scripture is encour
aged. It is “ silliest of all sensa
tion literature.” '
The samG; paper, the Weekly Review,
speaks in terms of decided condemna
tion, of a work the announcement of
which raised, our expectations not a
little: “ The Child’s Commentator, by
Ingram Cobbin, M. A." Such a work,
well executed, is much need as an aid
to domestic and Sabbath School instruc
tion, and would afford great help to
parents in making family worship at
tractive to the young. There is abso
lutely nothing extant exactly or ap
proximately answering to this palpable
want. Wo are sorry to learn from the
Review that “ the dliild’s Commentator”
is “ not in any sense adapted for a
child," except that it may aid the child’s
teacher;!, e. like any other commen
tary. ; *“The .subjects are too dry, and
the treatment too monotonous for a
child to like.”
A Publisher’s Unfairness; Under
this caption the Now York Christian,
Times, (Low church Episcopal) brings
a very serious, charge against the pub
lisher Carleton, which wo republish as
it is a matter in which all book critics,
especially in. the columns of religious
journals, have an interest. Such a bold
and scandalous perversion of the critic’s
words, for the sole purpose of promot
ing the sale* of an infidel - book, should
cover the author with shame, or compel
a full acknowledgement of the fault.
The latter has not, so far as we know,
been made. The Times says :
A correspondent has brought to our
notice a most wilful and wicked mis
representation of our late review of
“Kenan’s Life of Jesus.” We shall de
mand from Sir. Carleton, the publisher,
as public an explanation as has been
his perversion of Our language: The
circular to which our attention is drawn,
we append. Let the throe documents
speak for thejnselves—
1. The strictures of our correspon
dent. v
2. The professions of the circular.
3. The quotation as it appears in
our columns. .
1. Our correspondent says: “I have
cut out the enclosed circular of Carle-
to draw your attention, as pub
lishers of the Christian -jgimes, to his
extract in commendation of Kenan’s
Life of Jesus. The book is a vile infi
del publication, and calculated to do
great 'harm. I believe the words
are perverted, as no Christian paper
could endorse it. And the claim should
be denied.” •'
We are obliged to our friend for this
opportunity to expose an ingenious
falsehood. Now for— ; "
2. The professions*6f the eircular.
“ Renan’s Life of Jesus.—-A.transla
tion of that remarkablo work, by M.
Ernest Benan, just issued in Paris,
where the exeitment 'is so great con
cerning its subject and author, that
already more than 100,010 copies of the
costly French edition have been sold.
It is characterized by the Christian Times
as 1 man’s ablest work.’”
Surely the republication of such a
volume is disgrace enough, without this
bare-faced attempt to make a. Christian
;paper responsible for the iniquity. Let
'us turn to our files, and see what we
really did say. We reproduce only the
passage so sadly misquoted, and refer
both thq publisher and our readers for
lour opinions of the book expressed at
some-length in the Christian Times of
October 22d ult.:
“ For the rest, we know that the
abler and more scientific work of
Strauss was overthrown by solid argu
ment and superior learning, so that it
now; stands, if at all, only as a monu
ment of folly of even the ablest of man’s
efforts to discredit the authority, by im
pugning the authenticity of the Holy Gos
pels. The fate-of; Strauss was the fate
of all his predecessors, and the future
of Benan will prove no exception to
the rule.”
We were not speaking of Benan when
we used the language attributed to us,
but of the failure of Straußs’ infidelity.
That, perhaps, the “ ablest of man’s
efforts to discredit the authority of the
Holy Gospels," remains now only a
monument of the supreme human folly
of him who would deny his God. It is
but the stump of the idol. J)agon has
.fallen before the ark; Benan shall have
no better fatel ■
